🧵 4/4

For the First Peoples who fought against the US, the war was a disaster. Tragically, Tecumseh's dream of a Pan-Indian land that would halt future encroachments by the USA was annihilated at the battles of the Thames and Horseshoe Bend.

At the conclusion of the war, the British, not for the first time in their dealings with Indians vis-à-vis the USA, showed themselves readier to get back to business with the Americans than to secure the position of their erstwhile allies.

How I wish that a contemporary portrait of Tecumseh had survived!

He's made dollhouses for sick kids since the pandemic — even after his own cancer diagnosis
His white beard is a little shorter than Santa's, and he's missing the red suit and hat. But Vincent Giannotti's propensity for making toys and giving gifts — made at his Tecumseh, Ont., workshop — bears a striking resemblance to that of Kris Kringle.

SpotifyS4E12: Tecumseh: America’s First Whole-of-Society Strategy with Dr Kori SchakeListen to this episode from Talking Strategy on Spotify. In an epic achievement, Shawnee chief Tecumseh (1768–1813) brought together warring Native American tribes to stand up against the European settlers as they were pushing further West. His strategy included coalitions and the mobilisation of society as America had never seen before. In this episode, Beatrice and Paul are joined by Dr Kori Schake, Director of Foreign and Defence Policy at the American Enterprise Institute. Tecumseh, initially just the younger brother of a Shawnee chief, rose to fame along with his younger brother Tenskwatawa, a shamanic figure. Together they launched a movement that bridged age-old divisions among the Native American tribes. Social reforms – the repudiation of European imports such as alcohol, and a return to native customs – went hand in hand with political mobilisation and then military operations to roll back the encroachment of European settlements on Native American territory. Dr Schake has developed a passion for the Shawnee chief. She is a practitioner of strategy, having served in several high positions in the US Defense and State Departments and on the National Security Council. She was a foreign policy adviser to the McCain-Palin 2008 presidential campaign and has previously held the Distinguished Chair of International Security Studies at West Point.
